RESTORATION ENCOMPASSES BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT During the early years of her career, Marisa Faircloth had the good fortune to work with some of the best plastic surgeons in the field. She thought then what she knows now: that less invasive procedures are perfect for people who don't want or need drastic changes to their overall appearance. As she tells her clients, radical changes in your appearance are not going to make you beautiful; the lightest of touches can bring out your natural beauty. Marisa's unique approach to human connection and empathy allows her to provide more than the aesthetic services she offers. Though clients may come in thinking they need beauty services, they often leave feeling full restoration of body, mind, and spirit. Marisa's mission is to uncover the hidden beauty in each person who walks through her door. Whatever she can do to enhance and empower them, she takes the time and effort to do. Her book gives readers permission to do something nice for themselves, because if it makes them feel better, it makes everyone they touch feel better too. This is why the benefits of self-care are limitless. Using her decades of experience in aesthetics, she shares with readers how beauty extends beyond the face and body: true beauty comes from the compassion and connection we extend to others.

THE OLD LEADERSHIP CHARACTERISTICS OF POWER, CONTROL, AND FEAR ARE BECOMING MORE AND MORE OBSOLETE. Authenticity, compassion, and alignment are the new paths to leadership success. A leader's new power lies in their ability to connect. Whether you're the coach of a sports team, a nonprofit executive, the president of your family's business, or leading a small organization or a Fortune 500 company, the secret sauce lies in your ability to connect.While leaders might consciously understand that connection is important, they don't necessarily know how or what to do. In The Seismic Shift in Leadership, author Dr. Michelle K. Johnston compiles her years of experience as an executive coach and business professor with the voices of eighteen leaders at large and small organizations across North America, South America, and Europe to empower you to project your authentic leadership style, to show compassion to your team, and to align yourself with your company.

MOST PEOPLE HAVE SOMETHING THEY WOULD LIKE TO DO BETTER. If your job is to help them do that, where do you begin? You might think that because he served as a player development coach in the NBA, Phil Weber would suggest that you start by immediately focusing on the specific skills. What will surprise you about this book is that it starts with and builds on the mental and relational aspects of development that must be established first. Weber lays out a blueprint that addresses the importance of mindset as a foundation for the developmental process. And since all players (and all people) are different, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. This book describes how to identify the unique motivators and triggers that people bring to the table and how to meet them where they are psychologically and emotionally in order to create the right developmental process for them.

It's easier and cheaper to connect with consumers than ever before. Yet most companies are experiencing a loss of connection with consumers, struggling with declining customer response rates, and finding their consumer engagement initiatives delivering less-than-expected ROI. Simply being connected does not mean having a relationship of value with a customer. Connection without presence is a dangerous economic illusion in this age of commoditized connectivity. Presence develops and enables profitability. It is presence that makes an authentic connection with consumers, presence that moves customers through the customer life cycle, presence that turns a first-time buyer into a repeat customer and ultimately an advocate for your brand. Author Phil Kelley Jr. will help you understand where you need to focus your leadership vision and how to enable all your communication initiatives to be present with your customers. Presence leads profitability.

After his spine was shattered in a devastating accident, Dean Otto was told he'd most likely never walk again. His reaction? To challenge the neurosurgeon who put him back together and the man who hit him to run a half marathon with him on the one-year anniversary of the accident. You see, Dean is no stranger to pain. To beating the odds. To digging deep to find the willpower to rise beyond adversity as well as the courage to forgive. Because years earlier, he had faced another form of paralysis--one caused by alcoholism. It would be the same road map he followed to sobriety that would lead him onward, along with the love and support of his family and friends. Because sometimes things happen beyond our control. The only power we have is that split-second decision of how we respond in the moment. And sometimes, that one decision can make all the difference.

"What I have written, I have written!" WHEN HE REACHES MATURITY, even a pagan ruler like Pontius Pilate finds that life has become inescapable. He has done enough and said enough and has molded himself into a pattern that is the mold for the rest of his life. He may be able to shape it, but only in a limited way. Tiberius was the emperor, and Pontius Pilate carried out the instructions of Tiberius. Tiberius certainly had the power of life and death over Pontius Pilate. But there is still a very real sense in which Pilate wasn't willing to give up his dictatorial powers over everyone in his realm. Since he proclaimed Jesus to be the "King of the Jews," so let it be said, so let it be done. Pilate's words could not be changed. To some degree this is true of all of us. We can only marginally change the absolutes of life. God, and God alone, has the last say in all the major and minor details of His providence. Man invariably thinks that he is a free moral agent able to do absolutely as he chooses. But ultimately, he is only as free as God allows.
